i jsut spent the best afternoon with my newest best friend, Syd from Wausau,Wi. He was a wealth of knowledge. HE came over and looked my new coupe over and gave me tons of insight on how to remedy my few problems I have. Then, best part of all, he asked"ever flown an ercoupe"?. I said no, and that was all it took. We flew more than an hour,doing stalls, steep turns, touch and gos, and all the rest you might expect from a great flying lesson. I know he isnt a CFI, but......he really taught me the intricicies of his gourgous ercoupe. I think he is a fine gentleman, and a very ,very good pilot. I cant wait to get my lil plane fixed, and airborne. Syd has given me the fever big time, and I am now officially a "coupie groupie". Thanks Syd, and I look forward to a long and lasting friendship.
